Is there spider mite damage on this plants or is the discoloration on the leaves something else?

Or the fooking western thrips? (or just age!) They seem to be everywhere this year in socal. I found most veggies at the nursery had a few here and there. Spinosad worked fine last year but they do not seem to mind it anymore. Been using soap spray on plants in veg and going to try diatomaceous Earth on soil surface.

Your OG looks beautiful either way DST!

Thanks greenfirekilla, she's def almost ready, I flushed this morning so will leave another week - crop next weekend - which will take her over 9 weeks (get those nice heavy nugs.)

Thanks hayduke as well.

Well here is one of my headbands also at 8 weeks flowering - Uploaded a whole load of bud porn in my journal this morning as well:

Interga:- I have had some real probs with the og kush, I LST'd them and they have been getting mildew on the leaves (the top leaves also yellowed on my previous grow toward the end so that doesn't worry me)....so i have been treating the mildew with silinal. the buds are okay luckily enough. it's strange that is hasn't effected my headband plants. stopping with the og for a while.

hey guys, i got two 600 in two tents so i cant post my pride but i am proud of all of u guys. healthy plants for the 400 club!!!!

plants look great. What strain is that? How long from start to finish? Where they clones or seeds?

i have used 400 wt lighting for many season and as a recreadtional grower i have never be dissatisfied by resualts although i steeped but to a 600 wt for flowering lighting of this size is sufficent to achevice decent buds when harvest rolls around.

Dude your headband looks sic! Is it the 707? I have been growing headband for a year now, it is my favorite plant. The smoke is excellent, she is strong enough to hold up her own weight AND....she is so freaking powdery mildew resistant! An acquaintance traded me some LA conf and skunk kush clones that brought the wonderful PM into the garden (my veggies get it too so it would have made it in on it's own) I trashed them quick, but not before it took up residence. Ak-48 was real susceptible and not super potent, so she got thrown out of the rotation, My Hijack is lightly susceptible, but will fight it to see the first smoke. My K-train is VERY susceptible to PM, but is so potent, I have been resisting getting rid of her.

In the midst of all this...the headband is immune. She can be surrounded by others with it and gets none. I do not even bother to treat them. I freaking love her!

Note I treat with 1T baking soda, 1T Dr Bronner's soap, 1T organic hemp seed oil in a gallon of water. I will be upping the baking soda and reducing the other two to experiment (after some veggie gardening reading)
This (with hort oil or light veg oil and dish soap) is known as the "Cornell Formula" developed as an organic fungicide by the Universities Ag dept. The oil and the soap are also effective pesticides.

Going over to you journal to see some headband pics...

at least they're not messin up your buds. I was in the same boat with my nutrient burn last harvest, but it all turned out ok. The headband probly just has a higher resistance to the mildew than the other strains, so thats always a good thing. Keep up the good work.

Hi all,


Here is my setup, 3x3x5 tent with a 400 W HPS.



I just switched to 12/12 on these beauties

hey guys how many big girls can you fit under a 400?

depends on your setup. Usually the rough coverage of a 400w is 3ftx3ft. You can easily sea of green 9-18 plants. I personally Scrog 6 plants, and If I wanted, could get the same results off of 4. I would say that 4-6 is the average though.

Im in the stages of finding out which pot size will give the highest yield in total I currently have 25 plants in 4 litre pots under a single 400W HPS then Ill try 16 x 6.5 litre pots then 9 x 11 litre pots all will be grown in Biobizz soil & nutes.

sounds like a plan. Nothing like first hand knowledge of what works best.

and i thought my six lowryders were something you got it going on really good with your 25 plants

Unfortunately I have a medium yielding strain Blueberry but I have C99 & Blue Moonshine seedlings so hopefully Ill have a better yield with them.

so i should be alright doing 4 or 5 big girls then cool deal.

yes, I could easily fill my 3ftx3ft screen with 4 plants, but I use 6 just in case.

btw let me just say fuck g-13 seeds. 1 out of 3 germed, then it died 4 days later.

thanks lonleysmoka,
unfortunatly, im unaware of the strain, i got the seeds out of a bag of just regular street quality shit, nothing special but wot i have grown from this seed is nothing ive ever smoked before! very strange like sum kind of mutant seed offspring!
grown in regular soil from my garden! and mostly rain water.
they have been going for around 13/14 weeks now in total, roughly 6/7 weeks in flower, that is a rough estimate tho as i never took dates because i wasnt sure they would turn out this good!
so they could of been goin for longer, but i no when they will be ready for me, so this isnt a prob. gotta wait for the amber trichs! there are sum on the bud but not many at all, how long do you think it would take for that narcotic stone? they are nice and hard already but like i said, just waiting for the amber light!
